I believe this is the first David Bowie thread to grace musicbanter. Well, how very shameful of all of you.

Since he's a chameleon, I decided to put this thread here.

Your Favorite songs?
Mine:
Space Oddity
Rock n Roll Suicide
Ziggy Stardust
Rebel, Rebel
Diamond Dogs
Let's Dance
The Man Who Sold The World

Ziggy Stardust - because "he played it left-hand..." just like me (among other more important reasons)

His Berlin era stuff is my favourite.

Rock and roll suicide is pretty good to.

When I was about 7 My favorite song was Sufragette City ( my sister is 9 yrs older than me & a huge bowie fan at the time), Just because when your seven its really fun to scream "WHAM, BAM, THANK YOU MAM!!!!" at the top of my lungs. One time we were on a family road trip w/ me and my sister in the back seat and we were listening to that song on my little mono one speaker boombox, and the way that that song is mixed on the album that "PART" is on the channel not covered by my boombox, so when that part came up I screamed that phrase at the top of my lungs with no accompaniment whatsoever. My parents FLIPPED, pulled the car over, and needless to say, I got in big trouble. Thanks for listening.

No, It was one of the funniest family moments I can remember. We still get a pretty good laugh out of it.

I liked Nirvana's cover of "The Man Who Sold The World".
Bowie did it better though...
Did Bowie ever do anything with Placebo because I heard he did after they played at his b-day party...Idk.
